HP Compaq d530 SFF not recognizing DIMMs. Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit - BIOS version 02.44

Hello HP community!
I recently received a HP Compaq d530 SFF, from the company, where I had my work experience.
I gladly took their offer and took the PC home, all was going well until I bought myself some new DIMMs, from ebuyer.com.
I new for a fact, the computer needs DDR 333MHz, PC2700 and it had to be in DIMM format, so I went and bought 3x1GB modules. A few days later they arrived and I inserted them into the computer, making sure that two DIMMs were in the blue slots, and the others (I wanted to keep a 256MB module in) in the black slots.
I re-inserted the power cable and tried to boot the PC, it showed me a BIOS message, showing the amount of memory had changed, since the last boot. Once the configuration showed up, it only recognized the 256MB module. I then powered down the computer, to then remove the 256MB module, to see what would happen. I then rebooted the PC and it gave me an error tone (No picture). To which I then (rotatingly) tried each different DIMM, to see if one of them was defect. They all gave me the same error tone. Since then, I have been running Windows Vista Home Premium, with 1GB (4x256MB DIMM).
Does anyone maybe have a suggestion, how to solve this problem?
I have already updated the BIOS version to 02.44 (Latest I could find).
Thanks in advance!
Yours sincerely Simon Cahill

Beatsleigher,
Not all memory is the same, even when picking PC2700. Did you purchase non-ECC?
Here is a guide on memory config for the D530SSF

  • ITunes Version 7.0.2.16 and Windows Vista Home Premium

    I am still using iTunes Version 7.0.2.16, and due to my failing computer, I am unable to upgrade to a newer iTunes version.
    I am about to replace my old computer and the new computers all seem to come with Windows Vista Home Premium.
    Do you know if Windows Vista Home Premium supports iTunes Version 7.0.2.16?
    (My plan is to install this old version, copy my music directory across to the new computer, and then upgrade iTunes.)
    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Yes, you can install itunes 7.0.2.16 on Vista Home Premium.

  • AppleMobileDeviceHelper has stopped working - Windows Vista Home Premium 64

    I have iTunes 9.0.1 on my Acer AX1700-U3700A running Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit version. In case it matters I am using McAfee.
    I can connect my iPhone 3G to my computer and iTunes finds it. But whenever I "right click" on the iPhone icon I get the dreaded "AppleMobileDeviceHelper has stopped working". I've followed Apple's uninstall and reinstall instructions twice to no avail. When I try "repairing" AppleMobileDeviceHelper I am told that I don't have the .msi file to repair it from.
    I've tried the "Run iTunes as an Administrator" option but I get the same result.
    I see some people recommend deleting the AppleMobileDeviceHelper binary altogether but want to make sure I'll be able to still sync my and my wife's iPhones and iPods.
    Does Apple had a fix for this?
    Is there some settings I need to change in McAfee? I've confirmed that iTunes has "Full Access" through McAfee (I'm only including this as in some other threads some pointed toward their anti-virus applications as part of the trouble.)
    Thanks in Advance,

  • I have windows vista home premium and all other versions of iTunes worked on my laptop iTunes 10 won't work, I get a message saying I'm not connected to the Internet when I am. Why isn't iTunes recognizing my browser configuration?

    I have windows vista home premium and all other iTunes worked on my laptop, I downloaded iTunes 10 and now the iTunes will not connect to the Internet. I use Mozilla firefox on my laptop and for some reason it keeps saying the connection timed out and I'm not connected to the Internet when I am. Why isn't iTunes recognizing my web configuration?

    It probably has to do with your security and/or browser configuration.
    When my laptop crashed last year and I had to get a new one, I dealt with the same thing. First, go to your control panel and select the security section. See if your firewalls are up or not. If they are, turn them off. If you have any software to speed up your browser, that can affect the connection as well. Go into that software and disble/turn it off. If this doesn't work, contact customer support. They have a few other tricks they had me try that worked, but I can't remember them now.

    Hi Abdallah,
    According to your description, could you please post the summary and detail logs for further analysis? By default, the logs can be found in: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Setup Bootstrap\Log.
    Usually, the error occurs when the Windows Installer Service is not running or the Windows Installer registry settings are corrupted.  I recommend you reset the Windows Installer Service settings in the registry and restart the Windows Installer Service,
    then reinstall SQL Server 2008 R2. For more details, please review this similar
    article.
    Thanks,
    Lydia Zhang

  • Better privecy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers?

    Question
    better privacy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers? edit
    Details

    As a temporary workaround, I believe this Adobe management page allows you to clear your "Flash cookies": [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html Adobe - Flash Player : Settings Manager - Website Storage Settings panel] (hosted on macromedia.com -- Macromedia was the original developer of Flash).
    Regarding the script error, if I'm reading the script correctly, it is related to accessing your Flash cookies directory. It seems the publisher's support forum is not currently available for searching, but that might be a good next step.
    In the meantime, could you check whether the script has the correct location for your Flash cookies directory? If you can't access Tool > BetterPrivacy, you could check here:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''bpr''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) There should be a bolded setting named '''extensions.bprivacy.DataDir''' which looks approximately like the following:
    C:\Users\''yourWindowsUsername''\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia
    Do you have a similar value? If you paste the path used by BetterPrivacy into a Windows Explorer window, does it open? Also, click a couple levels in the folder, can you see:
    Flash Player \ #SharedObjects
    If the value is wrong, right-click the wrong value and choose Reset. BetterPrivacy should update the value the next time you try to access it.
    If the value is blank, you could try inserting a sensible value and see whether that helps.
    Any luck?

  • Syncronizing my 3gs with itunes the sync does not finish because itunes allways crash and stuck i made some troubleshoots like reinstall again but nothing and my itunes is update and the system is windows vista home premium.Please help me...

    Syncronizing my 3gs with itunes the sync does not finish because itunes always crash and stuck and i can not sync my device, i dont no whats wrong because the itunes even can not  acess itunes store, still loading waiting for itunes store and nothing.I tryed reinstall itunes but just waste of time.
    My itunes is update, iphone 3gs 4.3.4, system is windows vista home premium.
    Please help me.

    I also have the Mcaffe security centre so on the face of it we have very similar situations and I had not problems.
    You asked what I meant about saving the installer on your PC.
    When you go to the iTunes download page:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    And click on download, you should be offered the choice of running the installer or saving it. You need to click on save and then choose a folder on you PC where you want it saved. But I think you already did that.
    After the installer file - iTunessetup.exe - is save on your computer, you double click on it to run it.
    It's very odd that the installer fails at different stages. usually when the installation fails, it is at a specific stage and usually generates an error message.
    I am afraid I am mystified. Have you had any other problems with your PC which might suggest a general problem not specific to iTunes?
    The only other suggestion I have is to download a fresh copy of the installer - in case it got corrupted. You could also try using "run as administrator" to run the installer. It should be an option if you right click on the installer file.
    The other thing it might be worth trying is to install it from another account, but you would need to create another administrator account if you don't a;ready have one. Or if you have another account that is not an admin account, you can temporarily promote it from the control panel>>User accounts.

  • I can't synchronize my iPod's with my iTunes software (Windows Vista Home Premium) due to problems with the access authorization / rights for this operation

    Hi there,
    I'd like to ask you something:
    I'm trying to synchronize all my iPod's (I have as many as 4 iPods: 2 iPod touch a 8 GB each and 2 iPod classic a 160 GB each) with my iTunes software (Version 11.3.1 which is installed on a Windows PC (Windows Vista Home Premium)). Unfortunately, the iTunes software refuses to run the command "synchronize with the iPod connected" regarding each and every iPod I have. iTunes just declares:
    Synchronizing is impossible because I wouldn't hold the access authorization / rights for this operation.
    I uploaded the songs at issue to my iTunes folder from CD's (all songs are in AAC format now).
    What is this access authorization, why was something like that invented and what can I do to get it?
    How do I have to proceed in detail?
    What would it cost?
    I am brand new here and have never ever made a post in any support community anywhere in the world in my life. Well, and I am not excessively knowledgeable about the particular computer or mac language but I know the very basics or can find out about them.
    Anyways - can you help me please?
    If you can't help me, who can do so?
    It would be nice if you could answer me as soon as possible!
    Thank you guys

    Yes, others have experienced the problem, a simple search of the forums would have revealed that and the simple solution.
